INGREDIENT NOTES:
FLOUR:

SALT:
- Salt makes the biscuits taste better. It balances the taste of biscuits. Use sea salt as a substitute.
VEGAN BUTTER:
- Vegan butter adds flakiness to the biscuits. When cold butter melts, it forms layers. For a substitute option, use coconut oil. With its use, the biscuits won’t get as flaky.
